Pagevars are not parsed correctly ? about franklin.jl HOT 4 CLOSED

Hello Simon, thanks for the nice description and nice blog, seems like we share some common interests.

In this case, using @delay in front of the definition of hfun_post should help so in your utils.jl:

@delay hfun_post(...)
 # rest of the function as you had it
end

This @delay thing is annoying and the next version of Franklin drops it (this is in beta at Xranklin.jl, you could already use it if you wanted to). It was added a while ago to ensure that all pages are processed before the hfun is executed (basically so that the hfun is guaranteed to have access to the full state). It's recommended to use it with Franklin 0.10 for any hfun that makes use of pagevar.

I just did it in a fork of your blog and you can see that the notes page is generated as expected:

The reason why it was working locally and not on gh page is an unfortunate coincidence related to in what order files are browsed.

Thanks for the remarkable speed and accuracy of your answer ❤️

So if I understand correctly, without @delay, the hfun_* can be executed before some pages are processed ?

There is a catch, however : now with @delay all the links are broken. I think the pages werent processed ?
EDIT: my bad it was my own mistake :)
